@levisan They where pretty popular around the '80s in between all the pop and rock bands. A quick google search shows me they appearantly are still performing lately. Not sure if they are the original band.

@MartinJJ If I understand correctly, they recently replaced the performing team with millennials, but they're still doing *something* at least. It might just be targeted at the old fanbase, as I haven't heard anything of any new recordings in the works.

@MartinJJ Yeah, my dad was born and grew up just south of Rotterdam (Zuidland, to be precise) at the same time @adam was there, and even had his own little pirate radio broadcast on the weekends for a while. He moved out here to marry my mom, a mixed-heritage American. Us three kids were all born in Canada but registered as Dutch born abroad, so we legally have Dutch citizenship.

I suppose you are officially a Canadian also than. What's the benefit of still having Dutch citizenship? In case you ever want to go here? Ever been here for longer periods of time? Even speak Dutch? How did you know about that music? Did he tell you?

@MartinJJ Being Dutch as well doesn't have much benefit here, but I did a year of school in 🇬🇧 and didn't need a visa, and my brother's doing 4 years of school in Den Bosch as a Dutchman. Because he's not a foreigner, the costs are different and it'll actually end up being cheaper, including flights and living expenses, than similar schooling here, because of the various government funding.

@MartinJJ I've been in Holland, on average, once every three years, with the longest period being 6 weeks, as a 10 year old (we rented a house). I know enough Dutch to have spoken conversation with a kid, and I can understand enough to follow everyday conversations if I pay attention. Reading/writing is a bit more difficult, but it was good enough to meet the requirements of having taken a second language in high school here (instead of French).
